I long ago got over my desire to move to New York City, but oh, when I was younger, I really wanted to move to the big city to become a writer, to live where a lot of my favorite TV shows were set, to get out of my hometown and live among the skyscrapers. As I got older I realized that there are other big cities, I live close enough to visit a lot, and New York is way too freakin' expensive.

I thought of that after reading this piece in the New York Observer. Tom Acitelli says that The CW's Gossip Girl is dangerous because it gives a false impression to people from other states that New York City is affordable.

When I first saw the headline I thought he was going to say it's dangerous because of sex and drugs and immoral behavior. But, no, it's the real estate he's talking about.
